Help with Aero front bar

I need to replace the standard front bar of my 2006 Carrera S and was looking at replacing it with the Aero Bar.

I am in the process of ordering the bar, the lower lip and both LH and RH retaining frames.
What else do I need to order? Will the existing ducting fit the retaining frames? Do I need the centre section block out piece? Do I need the underside skid plate, any brackets, hardware, etc?

Would appreciate any advice from those who have done this before.

I'm not sure of the "bar" you are referring to but there is an extensive DIY section you should check out if you haven't already.

Yes, sorry. Bar = Bumper, as in bumper bar.
Love the spelling for under btw, spot on for pronunciation.

I ordered my Aerokit bumper from Suncoast and it came with everything needed. I assume all the factory ones do. I reused the center section from my OEM bumper and the Aerokit came with the correct ducts for the sides.

Thanks for your reply.
My preference was to get the bumper from Suncoast but the shipping worked out to be greater than the part, so I am talking to Teile.com. Their parts seem to be all separate units that is why I asked.
Thanks for clarifying the centre section query. I assume it bolts right up if you were able to do this.

Yes, center section is a perfect fit, only the side ducts need to be changed.
